So, it should come as no surprise that today, the Rams defensive lineman won the Arthur Ashe award for Courage at the 2014 ESPYs. After receiving the award, Sam gave an emotional speech about what Ashe meant to him and how Michael's own life has affected others on and off the field. Check out the incredible moment in the above video.
